EFFIE ELLSLER.
Her Braso RescUe of Three Children and
CaDtnre of a Husband.


Her Bra - Rescue of Three Children and
Capture of a Husband.
Effie Ellsler. the actress, was the heroine
in a quiet little affair that happened one
frigid December day nearly dozen years
sgo. She was starring in ga Heroine in
Rags" ar d at an interior Ohio town found
herself with an afternoon hanging heavily
on her hands. She and Mr.. Weston, who
was playing his first season with her, de-
termined to spend an hour skating on the
small river near by. They had been on
the ice an hour and were about 10 leave
when an agoniZed scream brought the
scores OF merry skaters to standstill, as
they saw three forms struggling in the
water amid crush of broken ice.
All seemed paralyzed with fear and Of
fered no assistance to the drowning chill
dren. Mr.. Weston had skated some dis
lance down the stream. Miss Ellsler took
in the situation at a glance and rushing
rapidly to the hole in the ice lay down and
pulled two of the children out. The third
was sinking, and in her efforts to catch it
the little actress felt the ice give way be.
meath her. In a moment she was in the
water over her head. With an effort she
caught the child and held il by one arm
while clinging to the ice with the other
until Mr.. Weston arrived and assisted both
to safety.
1t is said that gentleman proposed to
Miss Ellsler on the way to the hotel, was
accepted, and soon after occurred the mar
risge, which shook the Ellsler family all
over, and resulted in Effie being disowned
by old John. Weston has proved good
husband. Ellie has been successful under
other management than that of her father,
while the parents have been frequently
worried by financial disasters. Every
Christmas Miss Ellsler receives some token
of loving remembrance from the three
children she saved from death.

MuNcIE, October rs Special. l-One Of
the most shocking affairs that ever hap
pened in this section OF Indiana occurred
yesterday evening at New Burlington, a
village in the southern part of Delaware
County. Ted" Shockley went to the
home Of James Cary, his father-in-law and
alter passing few words on indifferent
matters and without any indications on
warning. deliberately pulled pistol from
his pocket and poured its contents into
Cary's body. Cary lived but three hours.
Sbockley then quietly walked out OF the
house and before he could be restrained
put the revolver to his head and pulled the
trigger. The result was Immediate death.
The only explanation given for the double
tragedy is that Shockley has but recently
recovered from a serious illness, which left
him with an unbalanced mind, and during
TT Of temporary insanity he comnitted
the murder and suicide. Esquire Cary
was sn old and highly respected citizen of
that locality and there has been no known
trouble between the two.
